Inside Slant

Choose diagonals that satisfy clues without making loops. A zero clue rules out every diagonal that would touch that point. Click a cell to cycle its diagonal; right-click cycles the other way.

The game retains its English interface. Its own menus and tutorial describe the current release.

Make your move.

  • Click a cell to cycle its diagonal; right-click cycles the other way.
  • Use the game’s own menu for a new round, difficulty and sound options where available.

Click or tap inside the player before using keyboard controls. Landscape recommended on phones. Touch support does not guarantee the same performance on every phone.

A good place to start.

A zero clue rules out every diagonal that would touch that point.

Session notes.

Pause, reload & saved progress

Pause using the game’s own controls before leaving. SENOVIRA cannot reliably pause or mute an external game. Reload restarts the frame and may discard unsaved progress; Unload removes it. Neither clears the game’s storage. Browser privacy settings may separate embedded and direct saves.
